Step 2 Jesus, the Lamb of God True or False _____ In Biblical times they used a lamb as a sacrifice for sin. _____ The Bible says that Christ was led like a lamb to the slaughter. _____ In order to enter heaven, you must have your name written in the Lamb’s book of life. A little girl named Liz was suffering from a rare and serious disease. Her only chance of recovery appeared to be a blood transfusion from her 5-year old brother, who had miraculously survived the same disease and had developed the antibodies needed to combat the illness. The doctor explained the situation to her little brother, and asked the boy if he would be willing to give his blood to his sister. He hesitated for only a moment before taking a deep breath and saying, “Yes, I’ll do it if it will save Liz.” As the transfusion progressed, he lay in bed next to his sister and smiled, as we all did, seeing the color returning to her cheeks. Then his face grew pale and his smile faded. He looked up at the doctor and asked with a trembling voice, “Will I start to die right away” Being young, the boy had misunderstood the doctor; he thought he was going to have to give his sister all of his blood. Yet he willingly submitted to the procedure anyway. In this lesson we will look at another sacrifice, the greatest in world history. 2 SACRIFICE 1. John called Jesus “the ________ of God, who takes away the _____ of the world”. John 1:29 In order to understand the significance of the phrase “Lamb of God” we must return to the Old Testiment where the Jews offered a lamb as a sacrifice for their sins (Leveticuls 4:32). When they were enslaved in Egypt, God sent ten plagues to convince Pharoah to let the Israelites go. The last plague was the death of the firstborn son of each household in Egypt. In order to save their sons, the Jews sacrificed a lamb and sprinkled the blood on the doorposts of their homes. (Exodus 12:1-13). THE BLOOD OF THE LAMB ON THE DOOR POST PROTECTED THE HOME 2. Since the days of Adam, mankind has been enslaved by sin. What was the price paid to rescue us Gold or silver No! According to 1 Peter 1:18-19 the price was much higher. Verse 19 says that we were rescued from our empty way of life with the precious ___________ of Christ, a _________ without blemish or defect. 1 Peter 2:24 explains that he bore our ____________ in his body on the cross. We didn’t have to pay anything to be ransomed from sin; but for Christ, the price could’t have been higher. It cost him everything. 3. Isaiah 53:3-7 presents Christ as the Lamb of God. He gave his life for us, yet how was he treated v. 3 _______________________________________________________________ In all of world history, there has never been a greater example of love and sacrifice than that of Jesus. Even so, his sacrifice was ignored or rejected by the majority. Are things any different today ____________. Nothing has really changed, the world keeps on rejecting him. Some scoff, others are indifferent, and the majority doesn’t believe. And you, how are you treating Jesus today ______________________________________________________ 4. Why was Jesus bruised and wounded Isaiah 53: 5 ________________________________________________ 5. Verse 6 describes sin as the tendency to __________________________________________________________ Sheep tend to wander in search of pasture, and if left alone will stray from their shepherd, get lost and find themselves in trouble. Sin is not just open rebellion against God, it is seeking our will instead of His. When we go our own way, it may look like we are doing fine, but later we will find ourselves completely lost. Our path leads us to make poor decisions, reflect unhealthy attitudes, and act inappropriately. 8
6. How many of us have strayed from God’s path to go our own way Isaías 53:6 ________________________ 7. What did God do to get us back on the correct path v. 6-7 ________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________________ In Summary: To say that Christ is the Lamb of God is to present him as the one who gave his life as a substitute for us, taking upon himself our sin and punishment. Sin and I What has my daily walk been like up until today Overall, I have walked: ❏ My own path. ❏ The path God has set before me. ❏ I’m not sure. In what ways does sin reveal itself in my life _______________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________ Meditate on your condition as a fallen person and on the Lamb who sacrificed his life in order to rescue you. THE LAMB OF GOD IN THE FUTURE 8. Revelation 12:10-11 speaks of a future time in heaven when believers will be victorious over Satan. What is it that will make our victory over the enemy possible v. 11 ____________________________________________________ Who will be in heaven “only those whose names are written in the Lamb’s book of life.” Revelation 21:27 “If anyone’s name was not found written in the book of life....” 9. Who are the only ones who will enter heaven Revelation 21:27 ____________________________ ____________________________________________ 10. What is the destiny of those whose names are not written in the book of life Revelation 20:15 _____________________________________________ Is your name written in the book of life What about you Is your name written in the Lamb’s book of life ❏ Yes ❏ No ❏ I’m not sure Is there something holding you back If so, what ___________________________________________ How can I have my name written down in the Book of Life ___________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________ See below You may pray the following prayer to have your name written in the Lamb’s book of life: Lord, I admit that I have followed my own path instead of yours. At times I have ignored you, believing that everything was going fine. I am sorry for trying to live without you. Thank you for sending Jesus Christ as a Lamb, the perfect sacrifice. I believe he died for my sins and was raised from the dead. I accept him as the Lamb of God who sacrificed his life for me. I trust in him and him alone to forgive my sin and write my name down in the Book of Life. Thank you for forgiving me and giving me eternal life. Sincerely, One who was lost. 9
